Okay, so I workout...I'm no Governator, but I try to take care of myself. However, there are many things that bother me in the gym. For starters, to all those who walk into the locker room and "claim" a shower by turning the water on...and then going to your locker to derobe: STOP IT! You are wasting gallons of precious water, and believe me, it doesn't take that long to get the water warm. You only need to spend a few minutes in the shower to get clean. Really.
But for now, let's focus on some other things you can do to help out your health and well-being, and our Mother Earth...
1. For goodness sake, don't buy the bottled water at the gym. It's a waste. Invest in a good, and I mean good since you'll be using this thing nearly every day, reusable bottle. Try stainless steel, I think they work best, and stay clean with little maintenance. Check out the Klean Kanteen or the multitude of others available.
2. Lots of harsh checmicals from soaps rush down the drain and wreak havoc on the water system. Not to mention your hair and skin. It's a bit more than regular soap, but your skin will thank you - get something organic or natural like John Masters Organics. It's way worth it.
3. Wipe yourself down - in the gym and after your shower - with something free of dyes and chemicals. Your skin is vulnerable during and post workout, so treat it nice. Your tush deserves a soft, clean towel each time...try something like this, which I'm sure you could find in most stores these days.
That's it for now...happy lifting!
